I only found this on ComicWalker in Japanese, and an unofficial scanlation on MangaDex in English.
I doubt this is an official translation, but if it is, does anyone have the ISBN for it? I'd like to buy it.
Or is it online only with no physical release?

Holo woke up from a light nap and completely lost track of time, but in the worst way possible. She wasn't sure if her evening with Lawrence had happened yesterday or long ago. For a creature as long-lived as she was, the life of an ordinary human is like the blink of an eye, so for a moment she panicked, probably imagining she'd lost herself in a routine and Lawrence is long dead.

Fortunately, it was only her imagination, and everything was fine. This motif recurs later and is one of the main elements of Spring Logs.

Look how they massacred our girl...

This one actually isn't that bad, since she's supposed to look distraught. But this artist ain't no Koume Keito.

Yeah. Spice & Wolf's story is far from uninterrupted idyll and sleeping under a rainbow. But even all these dangers and near-death encounters seem minor when such a deeply traumatic motif appears. I'm genuinely curious about the direction the author is taking the story. As much as I'd like to see "and they lived happily ever after...", I even more want to know how it all really ends. What will happen to Lawrence, what will happen to Holo after he leaves, and most importantly, will they be togheder again And forever at the end of everything.

u/Engini 1d ago

I mean "after his death"

"Memories of Spice & Wolf" is unequivocally the best story within the entire series and I pity everyone who'll never make it that far.

u/Engini 3d ago

Can you remind me what was it about? It rings a Bell somewhere but it was a long time sińce i finished reading

u/SydMontague 3d ago

It's the story the panel you posted is adapting.

u/Engini 3d ago

Ah. Okay 😅😅🤦‍♂️

Not my personal favourite but i gotta agree that it truly shows why this series is so good. The emotions, feeling and shock.
